The Proposal Movie
One of my favorite actress is Sandra Bullock. I watched all of her films from Speed with Keanu Reeves up to this one. I was curious about this film the first time I found it out. What is The Proposal is all about? I saw some billboards showing that …
Movie Inkheart
I love fantasy movies and try to watch as many of them as I can, but this one just rubbed me the wrong way. The thing I did not like was that they had guns in this movie. In fact they had a lot of guns. And it is …
Blood Diamond movie
You know, even though I take an interest in world politics, I have found I’m not a huge fan of movies about obscure problems in other countries.
That’s probably why, even though I tried to enjoy the film Blood Diamond, I found myself actually getting bored by it.
The plot wasn’t …
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1, Movie (2014)
I’ve enjoyed every Hunger Games movie that’s released thus far. I enjoy the franchise so much that I even read the books. When I went to watch The Hunger Games Mockingjay - Part 1, Movie (2014) in theatres, I hoped that this movie would live up to my expectations. I …
Take The Lead movie
I was able to watch Antonio Banderas mostly n action films, so I never really thought that he can dance.
I love this movie so much since it is a very realistic one, it really talks about the life of high school students. I can relate to the girl seeking …

Radio (2003)
Based on true life events, this movie tells the story of a mentally challenged young man. How he came into this light to be made a movie of is quite interesting and this movie will shine a lot of light into what exactly happed before, during and after the …
The Lonely Guy Movie
Another addition to my collection of silly movies. Even Steve Martin can’t save it, and that tells you something. But, even such a good comedy actor as him cannot work wonders when the script truly sucks.
The story is about “lonely guys” - single men who for some reason cannot …
Vicky, Christina, Barcelona
I watched ‘Vicky, Christina, Barcelona’ last night and could certainly see glimmerings of Woody Allen’s philosophical depth and cynicism in the interactions between the three lead roles - Vicky, Christina and Juan.
The locales in Spain are beautifully shot and I like the narrative style of the film. The threesome …

“Fanboys” Motion Picture
I did enjoy this movie which shocked me. I am not a fan of comic books, nerds, star wars etc which is the main target audience for this film but I saw a preview for it and it looked funny. About 20 minutes in I almost turned …
Saving Privae Ryan
I remember going to the movies with my husband and father-in-law to see the movie Saving Private Ryan, starring Tom Hanks. I actually saw some old men with tears in their eyes having to leave the theater.
The movie starts with this old man bringing his family back …
Movie National Treasure
I thought that this movie looked like a cool movie when I got it, so I sat down and watched it right away, and I really liked it. It is not my favorite movie, but it is pretty interesting and is a fun movie to watch with other people …
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Monty Python and the Holy Grail is the holy grail of comedic masterpieces and quickly became a cult classic for a very good reason. This movie is filled with stereotypical British humor but it is presented in such a way as to not alienate international audiences. The jokes are …
Vicky Cristina Barcelona
I have always dreamed of going to Spain and when i learned that the factual back-drop of Vicky Cristina Barcelona was Barcelona and Oviedo, i watched it sans hesitation.

The Movie Sweet Home Alabama
As a southern girl myself I was really excited to see this movie. It promised to be sweet, witty and funny. I was so sure that it would be because the trailer looked funny. I did go see it and have to admit that I was a little disappointed …
Wubbzy’s Big Movie
My daughter loves the show Wow Wow Wubbzy so, when we were surfing our Netflix instant movies last night and came across Wubbzy’s big movie, she absolutely wanted to watch it.
It was OK but was kind of a disappointment too.
I’m not a huge fan of the show myself and …
Watchmen movie
Watchmen was an absolutely amazing film. If you can get the chance though, I would read the book before you go see the movie. Why? Because half of the greatness of the movie is appreciating how accurately they kept up with the panels from the comic; even shadows …
The Contender
I’ll just start with the part I didn’t like. I didn’t like the speech at the end by the President as played by Jeff Bridges. I had liked his character up until then but something about the way it was written seemed obvious to me somehow. Maybe in this …
The Marsh (R, 2006) movie
If you’re thinking about renting a rollercoaster ride of a film, look elsewhere other than “The Marsh.” No offense to the award-winning Forrest Whitaker, or the equally winsome Gabrielle Anwar. In fact, I can’t even say that I didn’t enjoy this movie. …
All about Steve Movie (2009)
I must have watched this movie 10 times already. It is really special. It is a funny, light, love comedy. At the same time, it does not strictly follow the typical structure of a romantic comedy. All About Steve is just a little bit to weird to fit the …

Robocop 2014 Movie, Director Jose Padilha
I am really happy that the new film from the series “Robocop” which reboots the series from the beginning, is an exception to the rule that I have found that reboots usually don’t work out as well as their original movies. This fantastic action created by the director Jose …

Movie Friday the 13th
I was a bit skeptical when Friday the 13th the 09 version was coming out. People didn’t hear much about it. And the cast was practically unheard of, which was a worry for all the fans of the series.
This movie is not as bad as I thought it was …
The Killer Shrews
This is an older black and white horror movie. I’m unsure what year it was made, as I couldn’t find that information on the DVD box. It had the look of the 1950s or the 1960s to it, so it may be from one of those eras. I had …
Hairspray movie
I am very surprised at how much I liked this movie with it being a musical. I don’t know if its because they had such good actors and actresses in the movie or what. I really enjoyed watching it and I usually don’t like musicals. I enjoyed watching this …

The Haunted Mansion
This 2003 release was obviously meant to be a “spooky comedy” of sorts, with ghosts and zombies who come alive in their tomb in a most inconvenient time. Perhaps some kids liked it, and perhaps it was okay to watch once for some adults. But to me, it was …
